Answer:
Correct answer: E total = 2,800 J
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
m = 4 kg the mass of the object
V = 20 m/s the speed (velocity) of the object
H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface
E total = ? J
The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy
E total = Ep + Ek
Ep = m g H we take g = 10 m/s²
Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J
Ek = m V² / 2
Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J
E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J
E total = 2,800 J
